          VoNR, 08 May 2023Lol It's gone too soon, just like their motherboards!Yes, a few models like Poco X3 Pro and Poco M3 have motherboard issue but that doesnt mean all Poco models have the same issue.

          Just like how Samsung A51, M31 and M21 have dead motherboard issue doesnt mean all Samsung have same issue. Just like how Iphone 11 and 12 have green tint display issue doesnt mean all Iphones have same issue.

            When both are finally listed here, we can compare:
            * POCO F5 Pro with Redmi K60
            * POCO F5 with Redmi Note 12 Turbo
            Boy I wish Xiaomi stops controlling POCO too much and let them design their own phone, again.

                Anonymous, 08 May 2023OP11 has EIS even for 8K That's my point. They do not state that it supports OIS at 4K or 8k. They clearly list it on their webpage as supporting OIS+EIS at 1080p 60fps only for some reason.

                      Wish they'd just get rid of the 2mp macro camera and that the regular Poco F5 had a smaller display like 6.1 to 6.4

                        I was expecting the F5 Pro to come with 12mp ultrawide and 5mp macro.
                        The Poco F3 which is almost 2 years old has a 5mp macro.

                                      Can you have examples that are less expensive then these on a same hardware and be in EU market also ? All i see is we get like very good hardware for 2/3 of the price of Samsung or Sony and so on brands

                                        Still though, if the price is that much less it might be worth it.
